Coordinates : A(1,2) B(-5,6) C(7,-4) D(-2,t) - All are taken in order

gradient of AB = (6-2)/(-5-1) = 4/-6 = -⅔
since it is quadrilateral, AB//CD
gradient of CD = -⅔
equation of CD : y-(-4)=-⅔(x-7)
y+4=-⅔x+14/3
y=-⅔x+⅔
now, sub x=-2 from D(-2,t)
since t is the y-coordinate of point D
t=-⅔(-2)+⅔
t=2

Therefore, t=2

Find the slope of the line through these pair of points.<br><br> (12,-18) (-15,-18)

zysi [14]

The slope, m, is given by the equation m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are points on the graph. Thus:
m = (-18-(-18))/(-15-12)
= (-18+18)/-27
= 0/27 = 0
Therefor the slope is 0

Find the measure of angle A. This is for my math class, and I’ve been stuck on this for a while. Please help!

Kruka [31]

Answer:

20°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a ∆ = 180°

Therefore, $(17x - 1) + (3x - 4) + 25 = 180$

Use this expression to find the value of x, then find the measure of angle A.

$17x - 1 + 3x - 4 + 25 = 180$

$17x + 3x - 1 - 4 + 25 = 180$

$20x + 20 = 180$

Subtract 20 from both sides

$20x + 20 - 20 = 180 - 20$

$20x = 160$

Divide both sides by 20

$\frac{20x} = \frac{160}{20}$

$x = 8$

Find measure of angle A.

Angle A is given as $3x - 4$

Plug in the value of x and solve

$A = 3(8) - 4 = 24 - 4 = 20$

Consider the function V=g(x), where g(x) =x(6-2x)(8-2x), with x being the length of a cutout in cm and V being the volume of an

Andrej [43]

Answer:

The maximum volume of the open box is 24.26 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box is given as $V=g(x)$ , where $g(x)=x(6-2x)(8-2x)$ and $0\le x\le3$ .

Expand the function to obtain:

$g(x)=4x^3-28x^2+48x$

Differentiate wrt x to obtain:

$g'(x)=12x^2-56x+48$

To find the point where the maximum value occurs, we solve

$g'(x)=0$

$\implies 12x^2-56x+48=0$

$\implies x=1.13,x=3.54$

Discard x=3.54 because it is not within the given domain.

Apply the second derivative test to confirm the maximum critical point.

$g''(x)=24x-56$ , $g''(1.13)=24(1.13)-56=-28.88\:$

This means the maximum volume occurs at $x=1.13$ .

Substitute $x=1.13$ into $g(x)=x(6-2x)(8-2x)$ to get the maximum volume.

$g(1.13)=1.13(6-2\times1.13)(8-2\times1.13)=24.26$

The maximum volume of the open box is 24.26 cm³
